Sequins & camo print

We all have that one thing we can't live without in our wardrobes and my most worn item is for sure my camo jacket I purchased off eBay a few years ago for less than a fiver! 


I literally throw this on with anything wether it goes or not....... 


I do love a bit of bling in the form of sequins I found this cute t-shirt in My local H&M sales.

Benefits new brow collection

I've been meaning to do this particular post for quite some while now... Better late than never.

Out of all the things Benefit Cosmetics have brought out I've got say hands down the brow collection has been the best thing to date that they have ever done! 

As previously an employee for Benefit I've had the chance to try out the whole collection and I can easily say it doesn't disappoint whatever your brow dilemma there is a product for everyone whether you want subtle natural looking brows or a full on defined set of brows.


Out of the whole collection my favourite combo has to be the ka Brow (shade 5) and the Goof Proof pencil (shade 5)


Before How my brows usually look before applying any product.


After using ka Brow and Goof proof pencil.

And if I feel like being really extra I will finish my brows off with a quick stroke of gimme brow also in shade 5

Just thought I'd show you the Benefit Good ship as its where I did my brow training 


Inside it's pretty cool with each room having a different Benefit theme, however for me it was the worst experience ever as I didn't realise I suffered from sea sickness I felt absolutely awful for the whole day, I could not even imagine the thought of sipping cocktails whilst the boat sways constantly, I think I would literally throw up!



Funky prints

I do love a co-ord and this one in particular really caught my eye well I'm sure it would catch anyone's eye it's not exactly subtle which is why I love it even more I'm far from afraid to wear bright prints. 

I picked up this co-ord from H&M a few months back. 


I'm such an awkward poser always have been as much as I love blogging I'm actually camera shy....


I will be making the most of this outfit by switching it up a bit I think the jumper would go well with a midi skirt or for a more casual look teamed with a pair of high waisted jeans.
And the skirt can be kept simple with a cute plain cami top. 

If you like it wear it, there are no written rules to fashion!

Stripes

I felt like being a bit more colourful reverting back to one of my favourite colours neon yellow. I thought I'd bring a little sunshine into my day.


Today was all about comfort but still being stylish all though I'm wearing heels. They are block heels and not too high which makes them super comfy. 


I'm totally digging the colour combo of these stripes! I don't own much stripey clothing as it can be really unflattering if you don't chose the right stripes for your body shape. As much as I like these shorts they do make me look a lot heavier on my bottom half so on that note I don't think I will purchase another pair of stripey shorts with so much colour. 


I purchased these Missguided shoes last summer. They're very simple but the mirrored heel adds a bit of glam.

Casual look of the day


Finally it actually feels like summer here in London where you never know what kind of weather your going to get despite it being the summer season!

With the weather being 30 degrees I was finally able to chill out on my balcony and catch a little sun kissed glow....


My eyes water like crazy all year round but more so now than any other season so sunglasses are a must. 

I purchased these cool glasses from Aldo Shoes not only do they have great footwear but they also have a pretty impressive accessories collection.

Omg Primark clutch bag

I do love a novelty bag when I spotted this one on Primarks IG back in April I had to get one especially when it costs only £8 but my local only just got it in stock a few weeks back.



Ideally I would love a Sophia Webster clutch but not quite in my budget at £340....sad face 


If your on the hunt for a cool novelty clutch bag check out Skinny Dip London most TopShops have a concession or you can order online. They never disappoint when it comes to fun accessories. 


Accerorize always bring out an impressive selection of bags every season you can grab this one on sale for £17.50


Enough about bags.... 
I picked up this oversized shirt in the H&M sales it's not actually meant to be oversized but I purposely purchased it in a few sizes up as I preferred it not to be fitted.


I love bold prints as I'm sure I've mentioned in many of my posts before, as it easily adds excitement to a plain outfit.



And than the sun came out ......

Milani 2 in 1 foundation

Who doesn't want an affordable foundation that matches up with the premium brands???  
As much as I love a good quality foundation the prices of some can be quite pricey. 


Products used for this look:

Milani foundation 09 Tan
Benefit Ka Brow shade 5
Benefit Gimme brow shade 5
Mac Raizin blush 
NYX lingerie beauty mark ( I thought I picked up teddy) 




I've mainly been using Nars all day luminous weightless but at £32 a pop I wanted to find something for casual days and the days I want to experiment with different makeup looks. 


However this Milani 2 in 1 foundation + concealer is good value for money but I will give my honest opinion 

What it claims to do;

Medium to full coverage 
Lightweight 
Oil free 
Long wearing 
Water resistant 
Sweat proof 

I found the coverage really good but the formula is really thick so be careful not to squirt too much out!

This foundation is by far not sweat proof I wore it on a hot day with no air conditioning at work and my face was practically melting off!! Other than claiming its sweat proof and lightweight everything else it claims to do is pretty accurate.

For the price I would say its a good foundation just not for hot days would be great for winter.

It took me a while to find a website that had my colour in stock but there are plenty of uk websites that stock Milani products.
